A Television System with Automatic Target Tracking Capability

Mark G. Lowenstein

The Automatic Television Tracking System tracks a moving target while presenting it in the familiar television format. It is capable of tracking positively or negatively contrasting objects, accommodates a wide range of target sizes and shapes, and provides a linear output characteristic (volts per degree of displacement) over a large visual field. Tracking is related to either the visible geometric centroid or a leading edge of the target.
